WxGeneric

Using an algebraic data types structure and field names, this library constructs widgets for wxHaskell. It can handle data types with single or multiple constructors, as well as recursive data types.

The library is designed to integrate smoothly with wxHaskell. First, by making it easy to integrate WxGeneric-widgets into existing wxHaskell programs. Second, by letting a user extend WxGeneric using mostly wxHaskell function.

Download and Install

Before installing WxGeneric you need:

• WxHaskell
• SybWidget
• XTC

You can get the sources either from hackage or from WxGeneric's Darcs repository:

darcs get http://code.haskell.org/WxGeneric/

After getting the sources do:

cd WxGeneric
runhaskell Setup clean
runhaskell Setup configure --user --prefix=$HOME
runhaskell Setup build
runhaskell Setup install

Then you is ready to try the examples, see <path to WxGeneric>/examples.
